Default I love the specialized nature of Rick's Accessories

Rick's Accessories never fails to amaze me with their willingness to offer that "extra something" to make my Spa just a lil different from the next stook. I recently made an off-the-cuff request to Rick for some personalized laser-etching into an impending-order 7/8ths Aeroscreen. Without blinking, Rick was willing to take on the challenge. His fee for this personalized touch was quite reasonable. Take a look:





Thanks again Rick! I'm pleased as can be! I've received lots of positive feedback & looks from passersby. What's more, this aeroscreen effort helps clarify my license plate too!

Because I hate to quote something that others might try to hold Rick to, let me preface by saying this was a prototype effort and as a guinea pig of sorts, Rick might have notched the price down a little for the sake of trial-n-error. Having said that, Rick charged me $20 for the custom work to the aeroscreen. And again, money well spent IMO. Thanks for asking.

BTW, a very noble interest of yours to consider doing to your aeroscreen. It offers a pleasant feeling to look up in the mirror & see my lettering there...I'm sure you'd enjoy your tribute to your dad as well. Send Rick Hesel an e-mail if you are interested (don't think he does PMs currently).

Yellow...with bits of black here-n-there?...yeah, I'd consider it "bruised." Just a fun nickname for my Spa.

Just the right touch, Dave! Guessing you didn't want the S2000 on there anymore?

Well...no, that was a little bit of a surprise coming out of the mail pouch. I'd wanted the S2000 logo as well, but frankly I'm glad it was (deliberately or accidentally) left out -- would have been too "busy"/cluttered if that too had been included. Would have made looking through the rear-view mirror a bit cumbersome -- which I suspect Rick's folks knew as they'd ran the job twice. Never asked Rick, but I'm suspecting they saw it would be too cluttered & opted to eliminate their S2000 logo in lieu of my requested personalized phrases, etc. I'm very glad it was left out.
